I should tell my mother about that. She and her boyfriend are both 85, and he thinks that he would like to walk the Camino. I actually think that my mother could do it, but it would be at a very slow pace - probably would take 3 months.

Guess we did that backwards..after we walked from SJPP to SdC, we took the train back to Barcelona. We passed by the many villages and even got off in Astorga and spent the night as we didn't get to visit all the sights on our walk through. Then back on the train, through Pamplona and onto Barcelona.

Did something similar to @edandjoan when we finished our Camino and broke our return journey to Bordeaux into 3 stages: Santiago to Burgos where we spent another fabulous night, Burgos to Hendaya for another night stop and then Hendaya to Bordeaux to reacquaint ourselves with all our other belongings.

It was a really good way to end our journey as we reflected on the Camino as we travelled back along see of the Way we had walked. Love train travel (next to walking!).
